This study applies the unidimensional Rasch Model assumptions in identifying physics learning difficulties based on students' self-regulation abilities. A total of 126 physics teacher candidates have been observed for one semester. Self-project as a learning strategy has been used. Data were collected using 20 items in rating scales and then…

Direct linkSmith, Mark; Breakstone, Joel; Wineburg, Sam – Cognition and Instruction, 2019
This article reports a validity study of History Assessments of Thinking (HATs), which are short, constructed-response assessments of historical thinking. In particular, this study focuses on aspects of cognitive validity, which is an examination of whether assessments tap the intended constructs. Think-aloud interviews with 26 high school…

Thompson, Amy S.; Liu, Yao – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2021
This study examines motivation and multilingualism using quantitative data from 468 language learners in China. More precisely, the point of inquiry was to investigate the language-specificity of the psychological aspects of self within the L2 Motivational Self System (L2MSS). The Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) with the L2 English data revealed…

The recent adaptation of a Chinese parent version of the Autism Spectrum Rating Scale showed the Modified Chinese Autism Spectrum Rating Scale to be reliable and valid for use in China. The aim of this study was to test the Modified Chinese Autism Spectrum Rating Scale for fit to the Rasch model. We analysed data from a previous study of the…

Hidri, Sahbi – Language Testing in Asia, 2021
The study investigated the alignment process of the International English Language Competency Assessment (IELCA) suite examinations' four levels, B1, B2, C1 and C2, onto the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) by explaining and discussing the five linking stages (Council of Europe (CoE 2009). Unlike previous studies, this study used the…

Stephens, Ana; Stroud, Rena; Strachota, Susanne; Stylianou, Despina; Blanton, Maria; Knuth, Eric; Gardiner, Angela – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2021
This research focuses on the retention of students' algebraic understandings 1 year following a 3-year early algebra intervention. Participants included 1,455 Grade 6 students who had taken part in a cluster randomized trial in Grades 3-5. The results show that, as was the case at the end of Grades 3, 4, and 5, treatment students significantly…

Yusufov, Miryam; Orchowski, Lindsay M. – Journal of American College Health, 2021
Objective: Most sexual assault prevention approaches are universal in nature. The present study evaluated a Transtheoretical Model (TTM)--based Stages of Change (SOC) measure assessing readiness to utilize sexual assault risk reduction skills. The measure was evaluated with regard to Decisional Balance and Self-Efficacy. Participants: Survey data…

Alammary, Ali – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2021
Developing effective assessments is a critical component of quality instruction. Assessments are effective when they are well-aligned with the learning outcomes, can confirm that all intended learning outcomes are attained, and their obtained grades are accurately reflecting the level of student achievement. Developing effective assessments is not…

Yang, Hongwei; Su, Jian – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2021
The study revisited the community of inquiry (CoI) instrument for construct revalidation. To that end, the study used confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to examine four competing models (unidimensional, correlated-factor, second-order factor, and bifactor models) on model fit statistics computed using parameter estimates from a statistical…

Barakat, Maysaa; Lakin, Joni M.; Reames, Ellen; Kochan, Fran – Journal of School Leadership, 2021
The purpose of this article was to describe the foundational development of a conceptual framework for cultural competence of educational leaders based on an extensive literature review and to develop the CCEL instrument. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) procedures were used on the data (n = 252) to determine the psychometric properties of the…

Milewski, Amanda; Strickland, Sharon; Buchbinder, Orly; Herbst, Patricio; Chazan, Daniel – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
A historical review of mathematics textbooks suggests a canonical method to solving equations that teachers often see as "the" way to solve equations. In this paper, we examine data from a nationally-distributed sample of 524 secondary mathematics teachers who responded to scenario-based survey items that represent the instructional…

Bronson Hui – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Vocabulary researchers have started expanding their assessment toolbox by incorporating timed tasks and psycholinguistic instruments (e.g., priming tasks) to gain insights into lexical development (e.g., Elgort, 2011; Godfroid, 2020b; Nakata & Elgort, 2020; Vandenberghe et al., 2021). These timed sensitive and implicit word measures differ…

Wiberg, Marie; von Davier, Alina A. – International Journal of Testing, 2017
We propose a comprehensive procedure for the implementation of a quality control process of anchor tests for a college admissions test with multiple consecutive administrations. We propose to examine the anchor tests and their items in connection with covariates to investigate if there was any unusual behavior in the anchor test results over time…

Choi, In-Hee; Paek, Insu; Cho, Sun-Joo – Journal of Experimental Education, 2017
The purpose of the current study is to examine the performance of four information criteria (Akaike's information criterion [AIC], corrected AIC [AICC] Bayesian information criterion [BIC], sample-size adjusted BIC [SABIC]) for detecting the correct number of latent classes in the mixture Rasch model through simulations. The simulation study…
